ANGEL REESE FAKES INJURY AND QUITS ON SKY CAUSE SHE KNOWS ROTY RACE IS OVER!!!
So now her fans can claim she would’ve won the ROTY had she not gotten hurt, and she’ll have plenty of time to brew tea to spill. Shocking. I’m actually anxious to see a Sky game now. This is Cardoso’s chance to show us what she’s got.
Here’s how WNBA fans react to the news:
“I’m totally thinking there was some fallout between Carter and Reese. Also, remember around this time, ESPN released a standings list and Carter got upset about her placement on that list and crashed out!
I think she was like, FUCK Y’ALL. I’M SICK. LET’S SEE HOW WELL YOU DO NOW?! And they got smoked and she got vindicated…came back and was like, I’m ready to ball but I’m not taking part in this double double nonsense… now today, Angel announces she’s too hurt to play… Speculation of course but makes more sense than injuring your wrist making a 3 pointer”.
“Here’s what happened! Carter told Reese, “You saw they had lost seven games without me! I came back today, and they won because of me, not you! Stop pretending you’re a good player when you’re a mess! You can’t win without me; I’m better than you! You’ve dragged this team down with your jealousy of Clark and for being Rookie of the Year!
Caitlin beat you a long time ago!” Reese got upset and threw a punch at Carter, and they started fighting. During the altercation, she injured her arm or wrist!
That’s what happened, and we all know it! Angel Reese is trash and needs urgent psychological help! She thinks everything revolves around her! She’s just a laughing stock in the league and in sports entertainment”.
Fans Spark Chicago Sky Conspiracy Theory After Angel Reese Shut Down For Season
Chicago Sky rookie forward Angel Reese, who led the league in rebounds (13.1 per game) and ranked second among rookies in points per game (13.6), steals per game (1.3) and player-efficiency rating (17.6), rocked the sports world when she announced Saturday night vial social media that her season as over prematurely due to a wrist injury.
Many suspect Reese’s injury may be serious if the Sky are shutting her down with six games remaining in the regular season and the team fighting for the WNBA’s eighth and final playoff spot.
However, there’s another segment of the fanbase that believes shutting Reese down for the rest of the season is part of a larger conspiracy theory for the Sky to tank for a better draft pick, and they weren’t shy about sharing their suspicions of chicanery on social media.
“Sky tryna go full tank mode for Paige (Bueckers)?” one fan tweeted.
“That podcast must’ve brought in some cash. She out! OR the Sky ready to really tank to get a lottery pick. [I’m] pickin the second,” another commented.
“The Chicago Sky just got bailed out and now they have an excuse to tank the rest of the season. With or without Reese they were going to get swept in the playoffs and lose out on the draft lottery,” a third remarked.
“My theory is that I think the sky management shut angel down for the season as a reason to tank. Angel can’t shut herself down. I’m not saying she’s faking an injury. I’m saying sky ran with it,” reasoned another user.
“She had her best game of the year, the team is tanking and wants to lose the rest of their games. I see why conspiracy theories exist lol AR cannot gain anything by playing another minute this season. No awards are within reach so go out on top, and help your team tank too,” another fan stated.
Chicago has lost eight of 10 games since the Olympic break, and if it did secure the No. 8 seed in the playoff field, the chances of the team getting past the No. 1-seeded New York Liberty are slim.
So it would make sense for the team to at least consider packing it in and trying to land another Reese-type player in the 2025 draft class, which boasts UConn’s Paige Bueckers, LSU’s Aneesah Morrow and USC’s Kiki Iriafen at the top.
Angel Reese Gets Brutally Trolled for Stat-Padding as Sky Rookie Finally Breaks 14-Year-Old WNBA Rebound Record.
The Sky fell once again. However, the highlight of the game that could bring some solace to their star rookie, Angel Reese, is that she has once again inked her name in the WNBA history books. Yet, nothing seems to be coming easy for the seventh overall pick this year, as another story resurfaced about her stat padding in yet another loss. Consequently, the Chicago loyalists are not happy with the rookie.
In tonight’s disheartening home loss at the hands of the visiting Indiana Fever, Angel Reese recorded her 23rd double-double. She stacked up late points, ending the disappointing night with 10 points and 11 rebounds. While her double-doubles are the most by any WNBA player to date in the history of the league, she also added another feather to her cap. With her 11th board, she surpassed Tina Charles for the most rebounds by a rookie. The Hall-of-Fame WNBA star collected 398 rebounds back in 2010. Angel Reese now tallies 399 boards, with nine more games to go until the 28th WNBA season ends.
However, the reward came at the high price of being defeated at home with Shaquille O’Neal in attendance. Now, Chicago has suffered six losses in seven games since the break. They are also just one loss away from dropping out of playoff contention if the postseason started today. On the other hand, the Atlanta Dream is pushing for a playoff berth. If they win over the Las Vegas Aces tonight, they will replace the Sky for the eighth and final spot.
With so much urgency in the game being ignored just to add to personal accolades, the fans are understandably frustrated.
Chicago finds another reason not to love their lottery pick Angel Reese
It’s interesting to note how Teresa Weatherspoon made a last-minute trade back in April to get the former Lady Tiger on her squad. After that, the entire city, which loves great basketball players, celebrated the move. However, it seems Angel Reese has lost her appeal to a significant portion of the fanbase. As the game slipped away from the home crowd, WNBA followers couldn’t help but compare the two rookies.
Angel Reese is already far ahead of any WNBA player in terms of double-doubles and rebounding average. She also has nine more games to play this season, proving that she could have easily broken Charles’ record by the next game. However, she was the only Sky player fighting until the end, while the Fever had already cleared their bench four minutes before the game ended.
Meanwhile, Caitlin Clark also set a season-high scoring mark for herself while grabbing multiple records. With tonight’s win, the first-overall pick surpassed Courtney Vandersloot for the most 20+ point and 10+ assist games, a record set in 2017. Clark also had her third 30+ point game tonight, which led to Indiana’s victory. Reflecting on all this, some X users suggested that Reese was simply stat-padding–“She would have gotten the record anyway, but instead she stays in the game against the bench down by 19. She got 5 of her 10 points chasing that stat. CC also set a record, but got the WIN.” There is also another comment like, “She stayed in, just to pad stats. Fever benched their starters, already.”
Tonight was not the best night for Chicago’s post players. Specifically, Angel Reese only shot 4 of 9 from the field and 0 of 1 from beyond the arc. Still, she worked in the final minutes to secure the double-double. While she also fouled the Fever players during this span, she was only 2 of 5 from the stripe. These numbers show how she struggled to perform tonight, except when the Sky had already lost the game, something one women’s basketball follower commented on: “Angel didn’t do a single thing all game. Then suddenly when they’re down 25 in the last 3 minutes and 3 pts away from a double double she starts playing 110% 
What a joke.”
Reflecting on the same, another fan remarked, “lol. Down 29 with 3 mins left. All starters exit except her to get her double double with a minute and a half left.”
With four minutes left in the game and Indiana already securing their victory, Caitlin Clark left the floor along with the other starters. For her double-double with 31 points and 12 assists, the Wintrust Arena crowd couldn’t help but give her their respect. The home of the Sky roared to cheer on the Fever rookie, while on the other hand, Angel Reese continued to chase stats for the record. A fan mentioned this and pointed out the difference between the two rookies: “CC gets a standing ovation in ARs home arena while AR is chasing around stats in a blowout loss.”
On the court or off it, it was definitely not Angel Reese’s night. The rookie also couldn’t celebrate her themed “Barbie Night” due to the loss. However, hopefully, this will be a reminder for the forward to pick up her game like she did early in the season. For now, the Sky will travel to Minnesota to face the Lynx.
